Shooting at Jenin Hospital
The director of al-Razi Hospital in the city of Jenin, Fawaz Hammad, said that Yanal Hamran, from the village of Al-Hashimiya, west of Jenin, died as a result of a serious injury to the head caused by Isreali gunfire during the aggression against the city of Jenin and its refugee camp.
Hamran was shot by the Israeli soldiers while he was near the Khalil Suleiman Governmental Hospital. He was transferred to Al-Razi Hospital, where the doctors tried to save his life, without success.
Additionally, the Ibn Sina Hospital announced that two young Palestinian men, Wiam Al-Hariri and Mohammad Younis Jarrar, were killed after they were bombed by a drone with two missiles in the Jourat Al-Dhahab area, inside the Jenin camp.

Bombing with Missiles
A large Israeli unit, accompanied by bulldozers, stormed the city from several directions, from the streets of Jenin-Nazareth, Jenin-Nablus, and Haifa Street, and reached the vicinity of the camp, which led to the outbreak of confrontations.
The Israeli occupation drones bombed with two missiles in the Jourat al-Dhahab area inside the Jenin camp, wounding three citizens.
The Palestinian Red Crescent ambulance crews took the wounded to the hospital. Later, Ibn Sina Hospital announced that Hariri and Jarrar had died from their wounds.
The occupation forces also fired bullets, stun grenades, and toxic tear gas toward citizens and their homes, injuring a Palestinian youth with bullets in the vicinity of the cinema roundabout.
Israeli forces also targeted the Jenin Governmental Hospital with bullets and a barrage of tear gas bombs.
In addition, a volunteer paramedic was shot, and several patients, doctors, and hospital workers suffered suffocation.
